Catherine Smillie Poet Free verse

Clean Water

Clean water,
We all need it
To stay healthy 
And live a long life.

Clean water,
We all need it,
Wherever we live,
Whatever language we speak.

Clean water,
We all need it,
But not everyone has it.

We can help those
Who don’t have it,
By donating money 
To charity.

With this money,
Everyone can enjoy 
Clean water and 
A long life.

Beata Agustin December 9, 2025 at 1:14 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
